Change your crankshaft sensor located behind lower timing belt cover. The way I check it is to unplug the maf and see if it will start if so stop the engine and do a diagnostic 3 DTC's should come up on screen ,one would be the crankshaft sensor. This should be done by a experienced tech.
The crank shaft sensor will be fitted over the front crankshaft pulley or where it can read the electronic signals generated from the flywheel....The way it works is to receive a magnetically generated signal which is transmitted to the management computer system....It basically indicates when the piston is at the ignition point of the engines cycle...As we're dealing with a four stroke engine, remember that the crankshaft makes four revolutions to two of the camshaft....The cam will give its own signal via its own sensor....Both are used to control the spark and firing of the plugs in the correct sequence and at the correct time....If the scan tool said the crank sensor I'd think that's the fault and stick to that....

change the crankshaft sensor. it's located in the cylinder block, where the alternator is, above the oil filter. make sure the car is cool & raise the car on jackstands. go under the car & find the oil filter & right above it is the crankshaft sensor. take it out from the cylinder block & pull out the red stop clip. after that, pull out the sensor from the wire clip & install the new sensor. installation is reverse of removal. now your car shouldn't stop.
